I like the look of the black set with the chrome lip, sets it off nice against the black paint

2nd pic, if you are thinking of getting a set, ask them how much of a discount for 2 cars.

only 18's? if you're after a similar effect to your chops you're goin to want 19's or 20's, or 18's with superlows, but they still may look a little small

nice choice of rim though but i think the black face would look nice
